I never said I hated you, I don't know you well enough to hate you. I'm just saying that everyone is seeing it as an investment opportunity and not as the currency solution that it really is. The fact that everyone is acting this way is a hinderance to actual currency adoption, which is my personal dream for bitcoin. If everyone just sits on it, is it going to actually be worth anything? I always go back to thinking along the lines of Executive Order 6102. But whatever... To the moon! PS: Amazon has incentivized Bitcoin? When? Where? I wasn't aware they even accepted it. You can buy Amazon gift cards from external parties with Bitcoin but it doesn't directly accept it to my knowledge.
Those are all legitimate concerns. Apologies, I have flubbed my facts. Your understanding is more or less spot on. Some sleuthing tells me that there was once talk of Amazon fully adopting it, but they nixed the idea shortly after it was discussed in the public sphere.PS: Amazon has incentivized Bitcoin? When?
